The Cambridge Stem Cell Institute is an international centre of excellence for stem cell research and regenerative medicine. Scientists in the Institute collaborate to advance our knowledge of various stem cell types and to perform pioneering work in translational research areas, providing the foundation for new medical treatments (https://www.stemcells.cam.ac.uk/).

The laboratory of Dr Mekayla Storer (https://www.stemcells.cam.ac.uk/people/pi/dr-mekayla-storer) uses multidisciplinary approaches to understand why the distal portion of the digit tip is the only part of the limb that can regenerate in mammals. The key step in this process is the formation of a blastema, a transiently proliferating mass of cells that the regenerates the different cell types of the digit to replicate the original structure. Therefore the broad goal of our research is to understand which cells and molecular pathways are necessary for this process. A portion of our present research builds on our previous work (Storer et al., Dev. Cell 2020) that used high-throughput single-cell mRNA sequencing and Cre-recombinase based lineage tracing to define the transcriptional identity of the mesenchymal cells comprising the blastema and the major transitions during mammalian digit tip regeneration. We are looking for a dedicated post-doctoral researcher with computational expertise to determine which of these factors present during digit tip amputation are necessary for successful regeneration and the mechanisms that underly this process. The post holder will use single cell transcriptomics/multi-omics approaches, spatial transcriptomics and computational modelling.

Requirements:

Successful applicants should have a PhD in the field of regenerative biology, bioinformatics, genomics, or cell/developmental biology or be close to the completion of their degree. Expertise in general areas of stem cell biology would be suitable for this position. A strong background in epigenetics and computational biology would be an advantage. It is essential that the post-holder is organized, able to work collaboratively as a member of a team and can communicate effectively and clearly.

Appointment at Research Associate level is dependent on having a PhD. Those who have submitted but not yet received their PhD will be appointed at Research Assistant level (Grade 5), which will be amended to Research Associate (Grade 7) once PhD has been awarded

Applications are invited to join a dynamic team led by Dr Richard Tyser at the Cambridge Stem Cell Institute, working to understand how the mammalian heart develops. This project is funded by Wellcome and will focus on the relationship between form and function during cardiac development. It has been well documented that the mammalian heart begins beating from an early stage, raising the important question of how and when the initiation of function occurs and to what extent this defines and influences the progression of differentiation and subsequent cardiac morphogenesis. (Tyser, Miranda et al. Elife 2016; Tyser, Ibarra-Soria et al. Science 2021; Tyser, Mahammadov et al. Nature 20201).

We are seeking an enthusiastic and dedicated Postdoctoral Fellow/ Research Associate to join our research group. The successful candidate will benefit from building upon novel datasets, exciting preliminary findings, and using unique experimental model systems. Techniques will include multiple imaging approaches (live timelapse imaging, high-resolution whole mount immunohistochemistry and in situ HCR), single cell-based platforms, hESC differentiation and general molecular biology techniques. The main duties of this position will encompass pursuing research objectives (see list below for full details); developing individual and collaborative research projects; as well as writing up research for presentation and publication.

About You

The successful candidate will have a PhD, a strong background in cell and molecular biology and a good publication record. It is essential that the candidate is highly motivated, have excellent communication and organisational skills and the ability to work both independently and as part of a research team. Prior experience in cardiovascular biology, electrophysiology and in vitro ESC models is highly desirable.

Responsibilities/duties

• Manage their own academic research and administrative activities. This involves small-scale project management, to co-ordinate multiple aspects of work to meet deadlines and to support interactions with research collaborators.
• Adapt existing and develop new scientific techniques and experimental protocols. The successful candidate must be familiar with or have the capacity to become quickly familiar with: basic molecular biology techniques (PCR, molecular cloning); fluorescence imaging approaches; and experimental embryology (isolation and culture of mouse embryos)
• Test hypotheses and analyse scientific data from a variety of sources, reviewing and refining working hypotheses as appropriate.
• Contribute ideas for new research projects.
• Undertake comprehensive and systematic literature reviews and write up the results for publication in peer-reviewed journals.
• Collaborate in the preparation of scientific reports and journal articles and the presentation of papers and posters at conferences.
• Act as a source of information and advice to other members of the group on scientific protocols and experimental techniques.
• Represent the research group at external meetings/seminars, either with other members of the group or alone.
• Carry out collaborative projects with colleagues in partner institutions, and research groups.

Appointment at Research Associate level is dependent on having a PhD, an equivalent research doctorate. Those who have submitted but not yet received their PhD will be appointed at Research Assistant level (Grade 5), which will be amended to Research Associate (Grade 7) once PhD has been awarded.
